Is there a good app for organising and tagging photos for the iPad?
I travel a lot with work, it would be great to spend some of the down time while I'm away going through the big backlog of digital photos from over the years and cataloging/tagging/properly naming the files.
I don't routinely need to take a laptop, always have an iPad though.
Any good apps out there?
Adobe Lightroom CC ?
IIRC the photo manager part is free
Cheers, I’ll take a look
I find the spatial filing of photos by location taken is the best bit about iphotos. Instead of remembering where you filed everyth8ng just navigate to the location on the map and there the6 all are. That was a game changer.
I use lightroom for some basic organisation and I'm certainly not getting enough out of it as a tool for that but everything then feeds into google photo's so I get location searching, date ordering and the intelligent searching as part of that so retrieving pics is easy.
Again it all depends on what you want as the end result as to how you approach it.
As above, there may be a different way of doing things that is substantially less effort than the old-fashioned way of going through each photo & putting it in the right place or tagging it, etc.
iPhoto will by default add location and time/date data also attempt to id any faces. This is sufficient for my needs for the vast majority of cases. If there is a specific trip or project or something you can create an album to put the photos in. I don't think there is any way of adding extra data or tags, etc, within iPhoto so you'd need to use a separate photo app which to me immediately makes it way less useful in the long run as you're moving away from the Apple way of doing things.
